This will be a long detail of what I’m going through, I’ll try and shorten it as much as possible. I really need some answers, I’m running out of time, and I’ve searched till my eyes burn, and I’ve still not found anything. I’ll start off explaining my situation, i’m sure some of you will think i’m making this up, but all I write; is true.

I left Atlanta on July 29th arriving in the Philippines on July 30th. The reason, to visit my wife & daughter. August 1st was my angel’s 2nd birthday. I originally was only to stay for 2 weeks, towards the end I ended up catching dengue fever, and I had an additional 2 weeks vacation with my company. I was to sick to get out of bed, and my wife went to download the forms from my email, so I could sign them, and she mailed them back. I told my company to use my emergency contact which was my mother, to get in touch with me – if they needed.

After a week, my mother calls me telling HR wants to speak to me, calling them , they claimed they never received the email. After I got irate, they then said they received “something” and claimed it wasn’t my handwriting. Then stated they had already replaced my position with someone else. Though later in the conversation they said I was “laid” off, when I began questioning it, and stated it sounds like retaliation because of how we were paid for overtime. We were paid illegally. I was hung up on.

The costs of the medicine and seeing the doctor racked up, and my vacation money was obliterated, I’m 29 years old. I had no significant savings. I had my sister go to the home I was renting and grab whatever she could fit in her car, to sell for me. But with things as bad as it is in the states, it took months to sell my belongings and money only trickled in. I never had enough funds to fly back to the states, and leave enough cushion for my wife and daughter to live off of.

I was essentionally stranded in the Philippines. I’ve applied at every possible job positioning here in Angeles, Philippines dealing in customer service, and I get rejected due to my experience lands me in upper end management, and no one wants to pay an american in management apparently – I don’t know the reasons I get rejected, I always thought my resume was great.

I’ve got about $200 left to my name, and my family is just about in the same boat as I am. Both my brother & father were laid off. Tommorrow I go to immigration to feed them $40 just so I can be considered legal in this country for another 2 months. Then another $100 in utilities and rent. Never thought I would have to spill my most personal problems on the internet before. But here I am. By January my family will be on the streets and we will have nothing left. A homeless American in the philippines, Who would have figured so a thing.

So I hope there’s somewhere out there that reads this, that Is in the Philippines knows of a way for me to get some work that will keep my family afloat, or anyone else anywhere else in the world, that knows of donation organizations that can help my family stay afloat, until I can get some work here. Please if you know anything, write me at Kriegar100@Yahoo.com. If you do know of a way, but you think this is a scam, please don’t hesitate to email me, I will provide proof in any possible way I can – that I am not lying.
